Eyvindr Finnsson (c. 915–990), known by the epithet skáldaspillir ("Skald-player"), was a 10th-century Norwegian skald.
His preserved longer works are: Among Evyindr's most celebrated lausarvísur is the following, attested in Haralds saga Gráfeldar, supposedly composed during the 960s or 970s: Snýr á Svǫlnis vôru — svá hǫfum inn sem Finnar birkihind of bundit brums — at miðju sumri.
It is snowing on the spouse of Svǫlnir [i.e. the spouse of Óðinn, Jǫrð (the Old Norse equivalent of English ‘earth’)] in the middle of summer; we have tied up the bark-stripping hind of the bud [i.e. goat] inside just like the Saami.
[1]Eyvindr drew heavily on earlier poetry in his works.
He is mentioned in the second verse of the Norwegian national anthem.
